Chris,

I think this is actually nothing to do with Python itself, and everything to do with Mac OS X and the neutered way it ships OpenSSL. Given that the library you’re actually having difficulty with is cryptography, I recommend using their mailing list[0] to ask your question again. I happen to know that there have been a few problems with OS X and OpenSSL since El Capitan, so you’re probably not the first to encounter them.
